Teachers can win $5,500 in supplies
Catalogs.com, and Nasco (www.eNasco.com)have teamed up to launch the 2009 "Tools for Teaching" contest.
U.S. public, elementary, middle and high school teachers may enter at the Catalogs.com Web site through Sept. 30.
In 400 words or less, teachers must answer the question: "Why does your class deserve to win a gift certificate from eNasco.com and how will you put the school supplies to good use?"
Five winners will receive eNasco.com gift certificates for school supplies.
The grand prize winner will receive $2,500; $1,500 will be awarded for second place; and three runners-up will receive $500 each.
Entries will be judged by representatives of Catalogs.com on persuasiveness, creativity, clarity and demonstration of need. Additional rules and regulations are at www.catalogs.com/teachers.
Winners will be notified by October 30.
"I'm glad we can provide much-needed relief for purchasing school supplies," said Catalogs.com co-founder Leslie Linevsky. "We also hope this contest inspires other small and mid-sized businesses to do what they can to support public education."
